Can't a senator read anything on the floor of the senate without fear of prosecution and doing so enters that info into the public record of the senate?
Shaving profiles allow for minimal amounts of facial hair. Like 1/4 inch or so. Gas masks work fine with trimmed beards. It’s the full on mountain men beards that don’t work for gas masks and those weren’t allowed. When i was in a few of my black friends used their pro mask with shaving profiles. It isn’t an issue.
I was military too. Protective masks work perfectly well with a trimmed beard. It’s full beards that get caught in the seal and prevent the formation of an airtight seal. Guys with shaving profiles have like 1/4” of hair on their faces not ZZ Top beards.
IMHO the cabin is second best. Teepee is the best for building fires.
